Title: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Dictator69 on October 06, 2023, 08:04:36 PM I was reading some topic few days ago, and that topic led me to this post of LoyceV (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5202391.msg53230999#msg53230999) where I read that, theymos address has 750 BTC and I did not believe it. Then I checked the theymos profile, and an address was mentioned there, and I checked it on blockchair explorer and found out that, there are 2 addresses connected to it one is of BCH and one is of BTC. Well, on checking, he has around 388.96 BTC. Then I came to get the idea of finding out how many BTC does the administrators of this forum have. It is possible that these administrators might have other addresses containing more BTC, but my way is simple.
I went to each profile and checked the address mentioned there on blockchair for the amount of BTC they have received or sent. Well, here is the list of administrators I have found when I was reporting a message in my last topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5467603.msg62888389#msg62888389).
After checking the profiles of administrators, I came to conclude that, theymos has the most of the BTC and as per LoyceV's Post, which I stated above, theymos has around 755 BTC on that address. But that address is not the one that is mentioned on the theymos's profile. So, I cannot say anything about it. To be honest, I thought the administrators might have thousands of BTC in their holding as they are the ones who made it this far from the start. But I think they don't have that much BTC, or I might be missing the right addresses to check. And I don't really think mprep has none BTC, he might not have written his main account in his profile. PS: I hope I did not miss any administrator or consider any moderator as an administrator. I did find another good thread consisting of all the moderators, admins, and staff. ( List of the forum's admins/ global moderators/ staffs (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5206428.0) So, I thought I should also check the address of the Staff too and should add how much BTC they have received at the addresses they have mentioned on their profiles.
Note* If I did make a mistake in sharing this information then please correct me Edit: After reading all of the replies, I can say, most of the members except few, have took this post in a serious manner. Like I am saying they have only this much BTC in there holdings. While to make sure, I even shared my way of finding the amount of BTC they have in their profile mentioned addresses only. I made this post in a fun way not in a serious or rigid information about them having only BTC that I have mentioned above. I hope you all will not mind me.

Hey man. Well personally I dont believe we have anything to gain from knowing how much BTC anyone owns. However, take into consideration that anyone can own the keys that lead to multiple addresses. So the one address you will find on my profile (for example) doesn't necessarily mean it's my only address. In fact it's the only address that I am comfortable in sharing with this forum's members. Finally, if anyone owns many bitcoins, good for them. Concentrate on your goals and make sure to educate yourself. Of course this applies to many areas in life. This is friendly advice of course Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Cantsay on October 06, 2023, 08:30:18 PM Dude, they can create a new wallet address that they have never posted or it’s not connected to their account and deposit some of their coin there which means this your post is totally wrong.
It takes less than 10 minutes to setup a bitcoin wallet and for people that have stayed in the forum so a long period of time and know so much about privacy and security it will be easy peasy for them to move their coins into their main wallet without anyone being able to trace the transaction to the new address, so just take a can of soda and focus on more relevant things rather than waste time on people’s money that of no use to us. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: snowpega on October 06, 2023, 08:46:27 PM I think OP just tried to show the results of those address which is attached here on BitcoinTalk which may accurate But the fact we really don't know anyone's portfolio actually what amount of BTC they Hodling and accumulating.
Sometimes things looks like that they are not what they are. They also have their other sides as well.i think All of these may have thier another private address where they own their assets privatly. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: albert0bsd on October 06, 2023, 08:48:59 PM Well this is Public information, but there is the possibility that they own more Bitcoin in some unpublished address, who knows?
I've doing something similar but with the address of all users in the forum, and yes there is a lot of Bitcoin changing hands here Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Stalker22 on October 06, 2023, 08:52:25 PM I understand that some members have no reason to hide their Bitcoin holdings, but I see no reason to make it public either. For example, I have nothing to hide, but I still want to exercise my right to privacy. No one needs to know how many Bitcoins I have in my possession, just as no one needs to know how much money I have in the bank or in a private safe.
As for the mods and admins, I believe most of them are very well aware of how to keep their Bitcoin holdings safe, and I doubt they have made their cold store addresses public.

Hmm, Interesting trying to figure are you defending the OP or Opposing him, as nothing is clear in your statement, as we cant get those Bitcoins even if we had gotten their information, Those who clearly take note of their asset's privacy, which is quite interesting because as OP mentioned most of the staff members holding, I think others can defiantly mention the Bitcoin address with 1K+ to 10K bitcoin holding addresses... (Just trying to explain), as on blockchain information is public, what matters is your identity and I'm sure OP cant mention their identity. Even someone can post a full list of wallets having X number of Bitcoin using any API or filter on the Blockchain's data.. besides that OP seems like you've put a lot of effort into coming up with an idea, for the next time I would suggest finding more specific informational content. Best of Luck :D :D. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: tbct_mt2 on October 06, 2023, 09:27:06 PM You must learn a basic, people can create and use as many Bitcoin addresses as they want. They can do it easily with a good open source non custodial Bitcoin wallet software.
What you tried to find is impossible and only tips of iceberg. Like you can not find any on-chain analytic tools or parametric that can give you how many people own bitcoin so far. They only are able to give you total number of Bitcoin addresses that have bitcoin. Forum admins, moderators have their Bitcoin addresses on their profiles to get donations or salary. Many Bitcoin developers have their donation addresses at https://bitcoindevlist.com/ (Bitcoin Donation Portal) but you can not know how many bitcoin each developer has. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Agbamoni on October 06, 2023, 09:38:02 PM I can imagine how the time it took you to go through each of the administrators BTC scanned addresses just to provide this information. One thing you should be aware OF is that most persons prefer being isolated and prefer hiding their asset in another wallet so no one will know the amount of their Bitcoin holding. The Bitcoin addressed you scanned might be one that can be seen by the public but there is this special wallet that hold most of their portfolio. I can't believe mprep will have 0 amount of Bitcoin holding.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Baofeng on October 06, 2023, 09:39:04 PM Ok thanks for this, but I really don't know what we can get out of this data? I mean what purpose that it will served knowing the administrators BTC in their possession or how much they have right now?
I'm sorry but this is non-sense, sorry to burst the bubble @OP. Unless you are a tax collector, ;) Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: KingsDen on October 06, 2023, 10:12:32 PM Ok thanks for this, but I really don't know what we can get out of this data? I mean what purpose that it will served knowing the administrators BTC in their possession or how much they have right now? Maybe this has made me know how rich theymos is; This will give me the reassurance that theymos will continue to pay for the domain of this forum for a long time; The data will also make you understand that Welsh is a rich staff ;D I'm sorry but this is non-sense, sorry to burst the bubble @OP. Unless you are a tax collector, ;) Op would have made further efforts by including that of satoshi to the data. It is obviously that of Satoshi's address that people are so interested to know and to claim. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: logfiles on October 06, 2023, 10:18:13 PM OP, you really have a lot of time on your hands. If it were possible, I would have borrowed your time, since you have plenty to waste around.
Having a bitcoin address on the profile does not signify 1. That is the person's main address for receiving Bitcoins 2. The total number of received Bitcoins in that address isn't the total amount that person currently owns A good example is the addresses on my profile. It received only 0.0362 BTC in 16 transactions since 2019. Does that mean that's the total number of bitcoin I have received in the past 4 years? Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Sim_card on October 06, 2023, 10:44:31 PM Nobody will be stupid enough to keep all their bitcoin on one wallet, talk more of the wallet that was provided here. It is advisable that one shouldn't keep all his bitcoin in one wallet, but in various wallets, so that when one wallet is compromise, it will not be all your bitcoin that is gone but just some fraction of your bitcoin. This is the reason why your information doesn't have all the fact of number of bitcoin that the staffs have in their custody. I don't understand why you chose to use you precious time to know how many bitcoin is in the staff's wallet that was pasted here.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: PX-Z on October 06, 2023, 10:56:52 PM To be honest, I thought the administrators might have thousands of BTC in their holding as they are the ones who made it this far from the start. Broken logic. It's not always the case. Do you think an oldtime holder won't spend their bitcoin? What's the purpose of holding it, just for show that i have this kind of numbers? And become rich virtually? Well, with those numbers, you could say at least its their average holdings, users here are not that open for public viewing. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: gunhell16 on October 06, 2023, 11:01:21 PM Because the assets are personal, I don't believe it is necessary for the forum community to be aware. Perhaps because you have already done this or before you did it, they have moved it to another add moved because, as individual holders, we do not want others to know about it because we desire as much anonymity as possible.
That's why you did it; you revealed their holdings based on your investigation here on the forum site. Were the people whose identities you mentioned on this platform notified, or did you obtain their permission first? In any case, you did it. What is your point in bringing this up? What advantages do we have here? Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: jeraldskie11 on October 06, 2023, 11:15:19 PM I really appreciate on the hard time that Op has spent to gather those data. But you can't totally determine how much Bitcoin do they have, only the Bitcoin they get from here. Some of them are using multiple addresses and I think none of them will expose the Btc they have if possible.
One of the possible reason why they didn't change the address: 1. As what I have noticed here in Bitcointalk, if possible, there is no changing of addresses, just like what theymos did. 2. Those addresses can be used to recover your account especially if you put it in your profile. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Onyeeze on October 06, 2023, 11:29:52 PM Their is something I want to ask, what does how much bitcoin theymos and the head administrators has have to do with bitcointalk.org forum, knowing the amount of Bitcoin in possession of administrators is not time wasted, because even though you know it will not implies anything, what I don't know is how forum the is being managed and if their is a necessary charge being subscribed by theymos every month or every year, its what I don't know, so I'm using this opportunity to ask if this forum do pay a monthly or an annual tax to any arm's of government. And those bitcoin that op mentioned I know that it was achieved or gotten from donations and what is it for?

And those bitcoin that op mentioned I know that it was achieved or gotten from donations and what is it for? AFAIK, that fund will be used on the forum to maintain domain cost, staff costs, and their salary.I didn't hear about the annual tax or any tax payment, which I think is unnecessary since the forum is decentralized. Have you ever heard that signature campaign participants paid taxes through their signature campaign earnings? I think that scenario is the same. IMO this thread isn't accurate and isn't necessary. They can hide their assets and create a new wallet as their cold storage. We can't really measure how really much Bitcoin they have. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on October 07, 2023, 12:42:24 AM Hey man. Well personally I dont believe we have anything to gain from knowing how much BTC anyone owns. Agreed. While it might be a neat-o thing to know if the people who make bitcointalk happen are bitcoin ballers, it's not a question I'd ever ask--and for the same reason I wouldn't ask any member here how much they've got. It's none of my damn business unless for some reason it is my business, and since I have no stake in the forum's funds or the earnings/holdings of the moderators I'm not looking to see any data on that.I mean, come on. This is bitcoin we're talking about. You know, cryptocurrency. I'm fairly certain that along with cryptography being used in the code to make the network secure and functional, the spirit behind it is that there ought to be as much anonymity among its users as humanly possible. Bitcoin is pseudo-anonymous of course, but blabbing about people's holdings in a thread? Eh, I wouldn't go there. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: komisariatku on October 07, 2023, 01:23:42 AM What is your motivation for sharing their address? Additionally, is there any guarantee that they are not using multiple wallets? So I don't see the urgency of this thread except spreading people's privacy to the public.
They are great people contributing to the forum. I don't think it's ethical to create a thread like this even though the address can be found on the forum. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: DapanasFruit on October 07, 2023, 01:58:30 AM Happy to know that we have some forum admins with a good number of Bitcoin. and that is just expected since of all people they are one of the most enthusiastic and believers of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Anyway, I think this is something that should not actually be talked so much as what they are holding is of private concern though they can still be traced if we want to though no one can be sure how much BTC a person is holding because it would be easy to create a wallet and not share the address to anyone. In conclusion, I am actually wondering what is the main purpose why we are sharing this information here. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: dansus021 on October 07, 2023, 02:22:12 AM I do believe that address you mention it is not their personal address like their cold wallet take a look at mprep do u believe the admin of this forum don't have any single btc at all hahahha.
and I also believe that some of user in this forum have their own personal address that never said the address publicly, for their own safety, privacy etc. Tho what I believe is this forum has a large reserve of BTC but we dont know the address and how much is it. "Finally, bitcointalk.org has a large reserve of BTC, so we're able to continue operating without ad revenue for many years. It's not even necessary to cut expenses or find replacement sources of revenue anytime soon, and I currently have no solid plans to do these things. I do regard it as less than ideal to be operating at a constant loss, especially because it constraints any desired future growth in expenses. Improving this situation will be on my mind in the coming years, but luckily it need not be a high priority." - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5407725.msg60976136#msg60976136 Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Helena Yu on October 07, 2023, 05:38:03 AM I don't understand with users who're saying @OP is exposing forum staffs' privacy when they're the one who share it. If someone share address, everyone can view that and there's nothing wrong. But it's wrong when they have an another address which never been posted, you share it to everyone.
I'm sure if such amount isn't the total Bitcoins they have. Guessing their total Bitcoins is like guessing how many Bitcoins are lost forever. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: apogio on October 07, 2023, 08:18:46 AM Agreed. While it might be a neat-o thing to know if the people who make bitcointalk happen are bitcoin ballers, it's not a question I'd ever ask--and for the same reason I wouldn't ask any member here how much they've got.

But it's wrong when they have an another address which never been posted, you share it to everyone. OP's intention wasn't against their privacy though. We must make this clear. I believe OP may not know that the address you put on your bitcointalk profile may be one of the many addresses the user owns. In fact, OP can use my profile as a reference. I have set a vanity address starting with 1Apogio which is my username here. I have exposed this address on purpose. Perhaps someone wants to send me some sats, or perhaps I do some transactions on the marketplace here. This is the address I want other users to know. I may have private keys that derive other addresses too. Who knows?! Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: adultcrypto on October 07, 2023, 08:50:40 AM I don't really see any need for this topic because what they have should be their private business and not important to any of us. Some administrators of this forum are early to Bitcoin so if they have good number of Bitcoin, it simply means they got then when it was easier. I even learnt there was a time they were gifting people as much as 5BTC for simple task like signing up in a website. Those of them that believed in Bitcoin right from time, held those easy BTC till date. So, it is not really supposed to be a subject of discussion here as that is their private assets.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: bayu7adi on October 07, 2023, 09:05:28 AM What is your motivation for sharing their address? Additionally, is there any guarantee that they are not using multiple wallets? So I don't see the urgency of this thread except spreading people's privacy to the public. What do you mean by privacy? Are they trying to hide their balance from the public eye? If that's the case, they should consider using a different Bitcoin address on their profile. On Theymos' profile page, there's a BTC address visible to anyone. This means that Theymos isn't really keeping their wallet completely confidential.They are great people contributing to the forum. I don't think it's ethical to create a thread like this even though the address can be found on the forum. That's a wallet that we can know about and is allowed to be publicized. As for the number of wallets owned by Theymos, that might be one of the secrets that can't be disclosed. I'm sure Theymos' wealth in the address displayed on the profile page isn't all of it. In other words, it's one of the wallets that can be publicly tracked, given the transparent nature of the blockchain. The exact amount of Theymos' wealth is unknown. There's nothing wrong with the original poster's inquiry, and I don't think there's any intention to intrude on someone else's privacy. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have?

There are people who like to stick their noses into the keyhole to look into their neighbor's wallet. I think this is a very bad trait, and I’m sure the OP would be against it if we were discussing his personal affairs here. OP, looking into someone else’s wallet and counting other people’s money gives rise to envy and, as a result, bad illnesses. Am I seeing merit hunters again? Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: shahzadafzal on October 07, 2023, 10:09:20 AM I was reading some topic few days ago, and that topic led me to this post of LoyceV (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5202391.msg53230999#msg53230999) where I read that, theymos address has 750 BTC and I did not believe it.

It is possible that these administrators might have other addresses containing more BTC, but my way is simple. I went to each profile and checked the address mentioned there on blockchair for the amount of BTC they have received or sent. First of all bitcointalk does not have "Administrators", we have only Secondly I don't know why we should be calculating how much BTC theymos or forum administrators are holding? Does it have anything to do with bitcointalk forum? Yeah you can check how much donations forum has received this information is available https://bitcointalk.org/donate.html for quite some time. Or may you just want to say how much bitcointalk forum is paying to it's Staff or Moderators? Of course that's something confidential info you can't calculate just based on some random public bitcoin address. Forum has some expenses other then hosting or maintenance expense, moderators who working to make sure bitcoin it does not turn into garbage :) Also once theymos said moderators should be seen as volunteers, not employees. About 25% of ad income goes to the forum moderators as thanks for all of their work. (There are many moderators, so each moderator gets only a small amount -- moderators should be seen as volunteers, not employees.) FYI above quote was true when there was advertisement on the forum, which has been stopped so we don't know if its still true, but moderators should be seen as volunteers should be true. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: LoyceV on October 07, 2023, 01:17:55 PM theymos has the most of the BTC and as per LoyceV's Post, which I stated above, theymos has around 755 BTC on that address. What are you up to? If only you would have checked that address, you would have seen it's empty. You're quoting old data and taking it out of context. Either way, the post you linked was about forum funds, not theymos' personal funds. Forum funds are still public knowledge, personal funds are, you guessed it: personal.If you want to dig theymos' financials, at least make it fun: My 0.003 trades were actually below the market rate of the time, and may in fact be the lowest-value BTC trades ever. I had measured that it only cost me 0.0007 USD per BTC in electricity (at 7.8 difficulty), so 0.003 seemed sufficient to me... Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have?

It should be clear to any normal person that no one is going to list here their addresses where they store their main bitcoins. I don't understand the point of this topic at all.

Post by: Dictator69 on October 08, 2023, 05:15:49 PM Hey man. Well personally I dont believe we have anything to gain from knowing how much BTC anyone owns. What you think is worth to gain anything. I am not being rude at least not trying to be. But I got excited and tried to see how many BTC they have, while I was checking how many BTC they have, I thought I should make this topic, and should share it with others too. However, take into consideration that anyone can own the keys that lead to multiple addresses. I already stated this in my post, that I have followed a way of finding how any BTC they had on their addresses which are mentioned on their profiles. I hope you read that. Finally, if anyone owns many bitcoins, good for them. Concentrate on your goals and make sure to educate yourself. Of course this applies to many areas in life. I am concentrating on my goals, which honestly, I don't think what are here on BTT, but I got excited to know, and I when knew then thought to share it. Nothing more, and this is not something personal that I have shared here, because all the information is already public. but thanks for your feedback. ------------------------------------------------------------- Dude, they can create a new wallet address that they have never posted or it’s not connected to their account and deposit some of their coin there which means this your post is totally wrong. If that argument makes my post wrong, then I was already wrong, because I already said in my post that It is possible that these administrators might have other addresses containing more BTC, but my way is simple. Which means the same. I don't know either people of this forum read the full post or not. not being rude just asking. I went to each profile and checked the address mentioned there on blockchair for the amount of BTC they have received or sent. It takes less than 10 minutes to setup a bitcoin wallet and for people that have stayed in the forum so a long period of time and know so much about privacy and security it will be easy peasy for them to move their coins into their main wallet without anyone being able to trace the transaction to the new address, I also have tried to make a BTC wallet and yeah it took less than 10 min, and I did not know that it is hard people to trace their funds, as you said it is hard for people to trace them, I will look into it, but I did not meant to say, that they have only these BTC in their possession, instead I was trying to say they have this much BTC in there profile mentioned addresses. In a fun way. so just take a can of soda and focus on more relevant things rather than waste time on people’s money that of no use to us. I did not think that I have to share something that should be of great use to your all guys. I thought it would be fun to know about such things. And as far as your concerns for relevancy, if it was irrelevant, then the moderators would have moved it to the relevant section or might have deleted it. Don't you think. ------------------------------------------------------------- I think OP just tried to show the results of those address which is attached here on BitcoinTalk which may accurate But the fact we really don't know anyone's portfolio actually what amount of BTC they Hodling and accumulating. Exactly, thanks for supporting my words, I thought all members are high here :D Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: stompix on October 08, 2023, 07:22:03 PM I understand that some members have no reason to hide their Bitcoin holdings, but I see no reason to make it public either. For example, I have nothing to hide, but I still want to exercise my right to privacy. Bitcoiners: Privacy is a must, the banks, the government and even relatives, they all have no business knowing anything about your finances! Also Bitcoiners on Bitcointalk: How much money does x have? How many addresses does x hold? Who owns that address? When did that address move coins? Did x just move coins to an exchange? Do you think z has coins? Do you know one of y's addresses? What do you mean by privacy? Are they trying to hide their balance from the public eye? If that's the case, they should consider using a different Bitcoin address on their profile. Oh, what privacy? How about this, let's have a topic monitoring how many Bitcoins and altcoins has bayu7adi gained in his signature campaign, how many addresses he has used on this forum, to what exchange he has deposited those, to what other users he has sent coins, how much merit he has gained and from whom, when he sleeps when he posts and so on. It's all public knowledge, I assume you have zero objection against such a topic, right? ;) Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Victorik on October 08, 2023, 07:41:47 PM Whqt I don't understand is why is the OP concerned about how many BTC the administrator of this forum have. Is it wrong for them to own BTC, if not, then I see no reason why I should be concerned about what they owned or not.
I think the fact that someone else's wallet can scanned to determine what they are holding doesn't mean that their privacy should be breached. It's similar to stalking and that is wrong.. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Dictator69 on October 08, 2023, 08:17:06 PM Well this is Public information, but there is the possibility that they own more Bitcoin in some unpublished address, who knows? I will be waiting for your work to see, and indeed one member would have another address that is not linked to this forum. Totally agreed. I've doing something similar but with the address of all users in the forum, and yes there is a lot of Bitcoin changing hands here I understand that some members have no reason to hide their Bitcoin holdings, but I see no reason to make it public either. For example, I have nothing to hide, but I still want to exercise my right to privacy. No one needs to know how many Bitcoins I have in my possession, just as no one needs to know how much money I have in the bank or in a private safe. Then don't use BTC blockchain because on BTC blockchain everything is transparent. Either you want to or not, it depends on you, in simple words, those who have mentioned there BTC addresses on their profiles are the ones who don't care about the privacy of hose wallets. After getting know about the privacy levels from cantasy, I came to know that we can obfuscate our TXs so no one would trace us. If you want to remain hide, then don't connect your wallet with your profile otherwise anyone can see how many BTC you have in your wallet by searching it on explorer. I hope you will not mind my words.And a matter of fact, banks know your personal life, and how much amount you have and can use that information for advertisement purposes, but BTC blockchain will not do such thing. So don't be worried while you are using BTC because your personal life is totally saved unless someone knows that this address belongs to you. Hmm, Interesting trying to figure are you defending the OP or Opposing him, I think he is defending me. , as on blockchain information is public, what matters is your identity and I'm sure OP cant mention their identity. Thank God, at least you know how BTC blockchain work, not being rude, but I was in some confusion after reading the reply of Stalker22. Which was confusing but helpful too. Even someone can post a full list of wallets having X number of Bitcoin using any API or filter on the Blockchain's data.. besides that OP seems like you've put a lot of effort into coming up with an idea, for the next time I would suggest finding more specific informational content. Best of Luck :D :D. How would I find the amount of BTC using API, can you share some details please, I would love to know about it. I actually did not spend that much time, or I think I did not notice it, because it was a fun for me, I really enjoyed in getting familiar that this member is our admin and moderator and wow he has that much BTC and what! he has no BTC at all. These was my reactions and so I thought the same reactions would be of other members. But I don't think many members really liked this post. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Sophokles on October 08, 2023, 08:23:54 PM We have nothing to do with how many bitcoins some of the members have received till now. I believe most of them have their own hardware wallet whose address isn't mentioned in the forum. So it is not possible to correctly identify how many bitcoins they are holding. OP must have spent a lot of his time extracting this data that has little value to any of us. None of these addresses seems like a whale address that we need to keep track of for any speculative move.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: digaran on October 08, 2023, 10:29:22 PM You forgot to add Luke_dash jr, he was a staff with hundreds of Bitcoins, they stole them all from him.
Also, do you know what they do to nosey people in hell? I have no idea, but I bet is something along the lines between monster and giant molten dildos.😂 Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Dictator69 on October 13, 2023, 09:35:36 AM You must learn a basic, I was aware of it and made this post as a fun, like I thought it would be fun for other members to know about it. Forum admins, moderators have their Bitcoin addresses on their profiles to get donations or salary. I did not know that thanks for the information. :D but just to clear, I do know that they would have more than one addresses which might not be listed here, that's why I wrote the way of finding how many BTC they have on the addresses which are mentioned on their profiles only. I can imagine how the time it took you to go through each of the administrators BTC scanned addresses just to provide this information. One thing you should be aware OF is that most persons prefer being isolated and prefer hiding their asset in another wallet so no one will know the amount of their Bitcoin holding. The Bitcoin addressed you scanned might be one that can be seen by the public but there is this special wallet that hold most of their portfolio. I can't believe mprep will have 0 amount of Bitcoin holding. Agreed, I was aware of all of it, but I just forgot to mention in my post that this post is for fun only but I did mention the way of finding the addresses which would have given this idea to those who would have read it full. But thanks for your feedback. :-*Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: DYING_S0UL on October 13, 2023, 10:13:45 AM OP, I think the number you are showing isn't correct. They have more Bitcoin then you can imagine. They are the early adopters of Bitcoin and this forum. They know about Bitcoin more than anybody. Of course, they won't be showing off their Bitcoin to the public. Bitcoin is about privacy and anonymity. Satoshi made sure it remains that way.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Dictator69 on October 14, 2023, 06:39:39 AM OP, I think the number you are showing isn't correct. They have more Bitcoin then you can imagine. They are the early adopters of Bitcoin and this forum. They know about Bitcoin more than anybody. Of course, they won't be showing off their Bitcoin to the public. Bitcoin is about privacy and anonymity. Satoshi made sure it remains that way. You are right my friend, the numbers of BTC I have written in the post, are not only they have, but at the time of creating this topic, I knew that. So, that's why to make things clear, I wrote in my post that, what method, I am using to extract the addresses of the admins and staff. I simply visited each's profile and there was an address mentioned there, so I simply copied and pasted it, pasted it on block Chair Explorer and copied the received BTC amount, and pasted it here in my post. It did take me some time, but the purpose, was not to show that they (admins) have only these amounts of BTC, but the purpose was to show how many BTC they might have in their mentioned addresses on their profiles. I hope you understand my pinpoint here. And yeah, BTC is about privacy, and I did not talk about each admin's or staff's personal life, I just mentioned the respected address they already made publicly available for us to see, which means there are no privacy concerns or norms I have broken by making this post, BTC provides privacy but transparency both at the same time. You should know that. The address I have written in front of each admin or staff does not tell us about their personal life, how they look, where do they live, etc. but the transparency factor tells us that this address has received this much BTC and sent this much. I mean, that's open for all of us to see. I don't know what all members are whining about, but maybe I think I made mistake by creating this topic. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: panganib999 on October 25, 2023, 06:32:40 AM I think OP just tried to show the results of those address which is attached here on BitcoinTalk which may accurate But the fact we really don't know anyone's portfolio actually what amount of BTC they Hodling and accumulating. Sometimes things looks like that they are not what they are. They also have their other sides as well.i think All of these may have thier another private address where they own their assets privatly. Hmm, Interesting trying to figure are you defending the OP or Opposing him, as nothing is clear in your statement, as we cant get those Bitcoins even if we had gotten their information, Those who clearly take note of their asset's privacy, which is quite interesting because as OP mentioned most of the staff members holding, I think others can defiantly mention the Bitcoin address with 1K+ to 10K bitcoin holding addresses... (Just trying to explain), as on blockchain information is public, what matters is your identity and I'm sure OP cant mention their identity. Even someone can post a full list of wallets having X number of Bitcoin using any API or filter on the Blockchain's data.. besides that OP seems like you've put a lot of effort into coming up with an idea, for the next time I would suggest finding more specific informational content. Best of Luck :D :D. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: haroldbrakus on November 17, 2023, 05:42:46 PM These are not their main BTC addresses, these are sub or extra wallets, the real money is hush hush.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: khiholangkang on November 17, 2023, 06:03:54 PM It doesn't prove anything, it's just an accumulation of the total received by that wallet address, so I don't think the thread title is quite right for the "ownership" thing you're referring to OP.
There is a general misunderstanding here in proving some people's BTC holdings. And their address written in their profile I think is one of 100 wallets created for sure, so this research doesn't prove anything buddy, it's just an accumulation of BTC they've received not current ownership. If you're interested, try checking the wallet addresses of the signature champaign managers to post here as well.lol Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: gunhell16 on November 17, 2023, 10:58:34 PM Is what Op said about the Bitcoin amounts of the accounts here on the forum he mentioned accurate? Second, did he talk to those people through PM who told OP about the bitcoins they were holding? How did he know that it was theirs?
I'm a bit doubtful about what the OP is saying. Sorry, why does it have to be exposed here? How many bitcoins do they hold in this forum? What is Op's point here in this matter? Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: blue Snow on November 18, 2023, 04:20:33 AM if I see this, it is clear that Bitcoin is open for those who want to know people's wealth. This explains to us that Bitcoin is not anonymous and exclusive like the hater said. (for the compare) We don't know how much money the richest people world because they keep the wealth on fiat money. Even we know the number of bank account, we can't track like we can track the bitcoin address. So it's clear that bitcoin is open for the world, everyone will easy to check how much money they have.
Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: armanda90 on November 18, 2023, 05:20:08 AM Looks its not their main wallet regarding you get it from their post activities with address proof, actually many investor in cryptocurrency exactly with bitcoin investment won't share their portfolio of bitcoin assets and priority to be privacy with how many bitcoin assets they have. Beside its amount accurate but all user here not only have one wallet exactly with their wallet using for receiving payment in this forum such as advertising or signature service campaign manager.
Regarding with OP source, in this forum looks have more than 700 bitcoin but many user privacy with their bitcoin assets holding and prefer now show yet with their main wallet using for holding bitcoin. By the way, its looks excited if have several bitcoin fund in our wallet for long term investment assets exactly as our children cost education. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: Shamm on November 18, 2023, 07:19:07 AM To be honest, I thought the administrators might have thousands of BTC in their holding as they are the ones who made it this far from the start. But I think they don't have that much BTC, or I might be missing the right addresses to check. And I don't really think mprep has none BTC, he might not have written his main account in his profile. Hey man. Well personally I dont believe we have anything to gain from knowing how much BTC anyone owns. However, take into consideration that anyone can own the keys that lead to multiple addresses. So the one address you will find on my profile (for example) doesn't necessarily mean it's my only address. In fact it's the only address that I am comfortable in sharing with this forum's members. Finally, if anyone owns many bitcoins, good for them. Concentrate on your goals and make sure to educate yourself. Of course this applies to many areas in life. This is friendly advice of course Agree with this mate we can't say that specific amount we found is the only btc they have cause some of us here win forum there are many wallet's and for example if you have 3 wallet's the I only know one of your address and that have a lot of money but I don't know your remaining wallets if how much you have on that. So like what you said mate it is hard to determine the Possible bitcoins of our fellow users here in our forum. But anyways for Op you've made a research for this an we commended for what you've doing. Title: Re: How Many BTC does the Forum's Administrators Have? Post by: shawonngp on November 18, 2023, 02:57:08 PM They may have other wallet addresses which are not shared in the forum, so we don't know actually exact amount of BTC they owned. I believe they have more amount in their main wallet because they are top profiles in btalk forum. So your information is not be correct i think. Like mprep is a global moderator but number of BTC received is 0, how i can believe it bro.
